Jordan ramps up oversight requests for top Biden officials

The chairman of the House Judiciary Committee warned Biden administration officials Tuesay against continuing to stonewall Republicans’ requests as the panel moves forward with its expansive agenda of hearings and investigations.

In a series of letters on Tuesday to top officials, Rep. Jim Jordan of Ohio warned that Republicans, now in the majority, are prepared to use subpoena powers to demand answers from the administration.

The letters went to White House Chief of Staff Ron Klain; Attorney General Merrick Garland; FBI Director Christopher Wray; Department of Homeland Security Secretary Alejandro Mayorkas; Secretary of Education Miguel Cardona; Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms and Explosives Director Steven Dettelbach, and Drug Enforcement Administration Administrator Anne Milgram.
